Course Details

Bachata Level 1* curriculum includes: Basic steps and partnership connection, 3-point turns, rhythm variations (fast, slow, step-tap), and more.

Bachata, originating from the Dominican Republic, is a music and dance style with 4 beats per measure. 

The basic step, is comprised of 3-steps in one direction and a pause on the 4th beat, which can be marked by a tap of the foot, or other styling choices. And then you just repeat - back to the other side! 

Since its introduction to the global dance scene in the early 1990s, Bachata has evolved dramatically in style and popularity.

Today, there are several distinct styles of Bachata, from “Traditional” and “Sensual,” to fusions with other dances like Angolan Kizomba & Brazilian Zouk.

  • Teacher's Experience
  • Bernard was born in Cameroon, West Africa. He has been dancing ever since he was a kid, and it has always been a passion of his. Dancing and expressing himself – is his happy place, and he is always excited to share that joy with everyone. He started off with African traditional dances, Coupé-décalé (from the Ivory Coast), Hip Hop, break dancing, swing dancing, country line dances, Afrobeats and later transitioned into Kizomba, Semba and Latin dances like Salsa, Bachata, Merengue and more. He has lived in Costa Rica and travelled in Central America and is able to learn and fuse different styles into his dancing. Bernard knows and believes that, “Dancing is one of the universal languages – being able to connect with people, share in the joy of the moment, smiling and letting the moves and song carry you – is something that words can’t describe.”

Bachata

This dance is achieved with a walking Cuban hip motion, and a unique "pop". The dance is performed both in open position and in closed position depending on the setting and mood of the partners. Similar to Merengue, dips are not original to the dance and turns are done infrequently.
